New bike with weird dropout. Need to fit front hub

So I've gotten hold of an old bike with a rather weird dropout where I think the previous owner has welded on adjusting-metal plates to make the dropout fit his wheel or something.

Anyway I need to fit the front hub motor wheel in the videos here. Any idea o how to do it?

Is it ok to fit one of these smaller axles in a droput hole that is larger in diameter as long as you clamp it tight with bolts? Or does it have to fit exactly? I haven't come across differeing axle sizes like this before so I need some help and tips to make it fit. Do I need some type of adjuster or can I just put the wheel in there and clamp it hard with the bolts from both sides?



Thanks
